The warranty covers lost or stolen phones under certain conditions. I would not advise breaking it just because a update is not working. This seems just like a software problem anyway. Try and sbf the phone so it restores it back to the factory default and then let it update. If it for som reason fails then you can take it back to the store and they can assist you because its a unmodified system

I think he is talking about the extra verizon insurance they cover theft of a device I believe

Incorrect. Verizon doesn't insure anything, Asurion does. You're referring to the insurance with extended warranty, which does NOT cover losing your phone or somebody helping you lose it but manufacturer's defects outside of the 1 year warranty.
